With Rocket Program I aim to develop easy to use websites and custom programs. For the websites I use the content management system WordPress. The programs are written in PHP, JavaScript or R. You can read more on rocketprogram.com.

I support the department with implementing hardware into behavioral science experiments. I give advise about which hardware can be used. I help to develop the experiments. I write software to analyze the raw data and to convert it to data that can be used by behavioral scientists. And I give lectures to explain my work and help writing scientific papers.

I organized together with the FDP in Gronau a symposium about the cooperation in the Euregio. We had speakers like the European parliamentarian Gerben Jan Gebrandy or the President of the University of Twente Anne Flierman. I development and implemented a personalized newsletter with information for specific parts of the city.

The Student Union is an organisation governed by students that represents the interests of all students at the University of Twente. Over 100 associations, committees and foundations including study, sports, cultural and leisure associations make up the Student Union. The annual budget was about 7.8 million euro.

I was responsible for

the PR of the Student union,

policy for international students, and

policy for the IT facilities for students.

Some examples of what I did:

My predecessor developed the general structure of a new Student Union website. I further developed the structure, hired employees to fill the content and coordinated the programming of the different modules.

Together with international office I organized the International day of the University of Twente and I introduced the Henk Zijm international award.
